BALLYTHOMAS arrives here in better form than his rivals and on a mark that leaves him well treated. Two wins over fences have seen significant improvement and, if that can be translated to the smaller obstacles, he could prove something of a handicap snip. He has run well over C&D previously. Midnight Gem is interesting with her stable showing signs of rediscovering form and on ground that will be more to her liking. Derrick D'anjou catches the eye off a low mark now tackling a trip for the first time.
